Bonus post!

Good afternoon!! I’m here to share a quick bonus post with you all! First of all, here is a rather humorous paragraph I wrote for school… on the topic of The Bookworm!

“The bookworm is an absent-minded individual.  Since many, though not all, are girls or women, I shall refer to this character in the female pronouns.  One may often find her daydreaming, most likely about the most recent book she read, or curled up in some corner with the book in her hands.  When needed for some occasion or task, it may be hard to draw her out of her bookish reverie, and one may need to repeat a question or statement several times before her mind is released from the bonds of Bookland and can focus on the present.   One species of this creature is very introverted and hard to converse with.  However, despite the somewhat reclusive habits of bookworms, one may find some that are not antisocial.  On the contrary, one may be able to draw a deluge of words from her, but only if they have to do with books: for example, the most recent story she read, her favorite books by a particular author, or her pet peeves in clichés.  And this information may be divulged in a particularly eloquent and poetic way.  Thus, it may be seen that the bookworm is not a complete annoyance, but may be a delight to befriend.”

Please note: I do not endorse all characteristics of bookworms! It is not good to be so caught up in books that one neglects duties. However, I’m curious… how many of the things I wrote about reminded you of yourself or another bookworm? 🙂

Secondly…

This is the second year I have participated in the Spring100, and my family and I are quite excited to do so again! Let me know if you are signed up for the challenge as well!

I hope you enjoyed this short post, and I will see you on Monday with a book review!

    That paragraph on the bookworm is so hilarious! I read it to my sister and we both agree it sounds like her point on! The Spring 100 looks very interesting—I’m going to ask my mom if I can do it.

Have you read this book?
